After a more than decade long dormancy, the Obesity market is undergoing a revival with the advent of several novel therapies that will lend considerable visibility to this indication space. This includes the use of combination therapies that simultaneously target multiple pathways and regulate appetite control, as well as novel molecular entities with new mechanisms of action. Due to this growing pipeline of late-stage drugs, this market is expected to experience substantial growth over the next decade.

Until the late 1990s, Japans pharmaceutical market structure differed greatly from that of the rest of the world, particularly western countries. The drug approval process was very slow and gave preference to domestic producers. Regulators and physicians were highly risk-averse, and the NHI system insulated manufacturers from the demands of the market. These factors combined to create an uncompetitive industry and subpar products.
